Youngman Durhamn County folks ,vould have known practically no- thing about a distinguished honour paid qur count v last week. Tn another colurnn in this issue vou i li1 read an interesting report of v.here the Commonwealth For- qstry Conference, comprising delegates from more than fifteen countries of the world, -visited the Durhamn Forestrv and the Ganaraska Conservation Project and made a thorough sight-seeing and fact- finding tour of these pioneer and success- fui reforestation authorîties of which we are so proud. Delegates marvelled at the progress being made in conservation in Durham Countv. Few Canadians are aware of the im- portance of the country's forests to their every- day living. Few are aware, for in- stance, that directly and indirectly, the forests generate a quarter of the incarne of ail Canadians. And more than haif of the economic benefits that flow from Canadian forest lands corne in the form of pulpwood. Thirty per cent of ail the weaith that is created by ail of Canada's primary sources of production - agriculture, for-. ests, fisheries, trapping and mining - cornes frorn the forests. Each day, throughout the year, some $6 million of ,new wealth for ail Canada flaws from products which had their origin in the timberlands. 0f prime importance to Canadians is the fact that the Canadian woodiands are owned by the Crown, that is by the people cf this country. Privateiy-owned forests cover less than 1/l3th of the total farest area. For every Canadian famiiy of f ive there are about 300 acres of timberiand which could be made to yieid a hundred cords a year in perpetuity. And a hun- dred cords of waod-ioaded on a railway car in the north woads now has a value cf about $2,500. So, it can be seen that from the self ish standpoint of an individual, the forests have great value. As a national asset, they are beyond price. Money spent on reforestation by government at any level, and the constant pleas to be cartful of fires when in the woods, have much greater signifîcance and meaning when the facts of Canadian forests are fully realized. SWIFT CURRENT BOYS' BAND AMBASSADORS 0F GOODWILL The editor stayed home from the Press Day festivities at the C.N.E. in Tor- onto on Friday in order ta attend the en- tertainment put on by the famous Swift Current Boys' Band at Newcastle Corn- xnunity Hall that evening. We were glad we did for-we were-no diapone . country f irst hand, become p-ersanalIly acquainted with your fellow countrymen, and in this way better understand the part each contributes in making Canada a great nation. We understand it was the f irst time the majority of these lads, and some cf the adults who accompanied them, had visited Ontario. We hope they were favourably impressed with the welcome they received and the hospitality shown them. We know £rom exberience it is hard ta measure up to western hospitality but we did our best. [n future as we think of the great western provinces "The Frontier City" as Swift Current is known will instructively corne ta our minds f irst due ta the pleasant memories cf the visit cf the Swift Current Boys' Band to Ontario. 0f course this in- cludes the charming and talented "prairie chickeris," as their Master cf Ceremonies designated the young ladies, who were an added and outstanding attraction MEMORY GOES BACK TO HARVEST TIME DOWN ON THE FARM Harvest-time is the happy time on the farmn but for the rural native working in the city it's a periad cf dreams and yul- nerability. No matter how far he may have drift-. ed frorn the aid homestead, a certain change cornes over him'as the crops ripen, whether he's in salty aid Halifax, cosma- politan Mantreal, mundane Toronto or even fair Vancouver. Farmers' sons from Ontario, Quebec and the Maritimes may be smitten with the faîl fever, but hardly with the samne roaaqing restiessness that cames over the prairie son. He remembers the vast fields, sweeping haîf a hundred miles with their golden sea cf grain. .Tlâe danger cornes in the way he stares idiy into space, his mind with the combines,.lHe walks into traffic, and gives up his street car seat as they used ta de in the aid days, or forgets ta wear a tie with his shirt. The malady cames fram having been toc close ta the land in his earlier days; toc near the ripening grain and toc much invalved in the rugged fun cf harvesting. Fram his office or factory, or in a crowded theatre or restaurant, his thougrhts. go back ta the bustie of men and machines under the wide prairie sky, to the chaff and dust from the slow-moving combines, to the streams pourrng from the threshing machine and the rows cf stock-, ed grain. And if he grew Up in some small town, one af his most tantalizirg recollections is the trip ta the cook-car cf the threshing outfit. There he got a real meal, and, if he was just a yaungster, he gat a piece cf rich apple pie or a he-man's steak sand- wich. Hie thinks ta himself - the city meais are neyer like those we used ta get at harvest-timne. EDUCATION ON ACASH BASIS Putting sehool education on a dollar and cents basis the family budget will get a, fairly gaod dent next week when little Willie and sister Susie go back te school. Some estimates put the back-to-school business investment in good citizenship at $100 millions. An estimated $75 millions would go on autfitting youngsters across the country, the rest on their working tools. The average annual cost per pupil cf texts and supplies is about $7.00 for ele- mentary grades, $19.00 for grade IX,, $21.0 for grade XI, and $26 in grade XIII. The estimated cast of outfitting a boy with a sport coat, slacks, shirt, tie, shoes, socks, and underwear goes with age as follows: six - 10 year, $37.00; 11 - 16 years, $44.00; 17 - 20 years, $73.00. GRANT SYSTEM HAS DISADVANTAGES With new spending records evident on ail sides as municipalities attempt ta, keep pace with ratepayers' demands, the need for reallocation of taxes between federal, provincial, county and municipal councils is becoming more generally re- cognized. It has been the policy of the Frost Government in Ontario to give consider- able aid ta municipalities and caunty governments through grants. These have been of much aid in holding the tax rise on property in line but the grant policy has weaknesses. The most obviaus is that grants have encouraged municipal spend- ing, but generally these are paid on a percentage with local spending. The second fault of the grant systemn is that it has a tendency ta restrict local autanomy. When grants are given, they are usually covered by spending regula- tions which often puts municipalities te expense which local members would avoid. When the federal and provincial gaov- wages (mhuch less than was demanded) won by the members of the union? Ulti- mately, the consumer pays ail. That's why every citizen of Canada has a stake in every strike; that's why differences between unions and employers should be settled as far as possible by negatiation before, rather than during, a strike. Even when strikers gain everythîng they demand, it may take them a long time ta recover wages lest during the strike peniod. It looks as if strikes are just "bad medicine" for cunîng economie ilîs. At a time in histary when apparently only the strength of democratie nations is warding off a world-wide war, it seems ta us that strikes may be regarded as econ- omic "sabotage". In addition they do not help eut the cost cf living situation which affects every Canadian citizen. In the, Dim and Distant Pa st From The Statesman Files I1 25 YEARS AGO Pete Lambros and Jas.
